Pneumothorax, a serious condition where air enters the pleural cavity, can cause shortness of breath and even death. Early intervention with a decompression needle is vital. This needle's larger diameter facilitates rapid decompression compared to standard needles. It's designed for piercing and insertion, making it suitable for both emergency medical professionals and trained individuals requiring a reliable solution for pneumothorax management. The sterile, individually packaged needle is marked with its size and type for easy identification. Always follow aseptic techniques to prevent infection. Replace the needle if damaged.
